Seconds before another travel along Douro river, even after a thousand trips i love it like if it were the first one, i just love trains, old trains, and this Douro path is one of the prettiest in the world.

DP Theme Day: Something that is about to disappear soon

After Rudy's requirement about more food photos i decided to show this photo about a typical leading dish of Portuguese cuisine, when i took this shot this "feijoada" was something that was about to disappear soon, i can assure you this food is history now, vanished forever with the precious help of a great red wine from Douro:)
